Just heard of this guy today. As a longtime acoustic fingerstyle guitarist who has heard them all from Chet Atkins to Doyle Dykes to Martin Simpson to Tommy Emmanuel, I've never heard anything like this.

Anytime I see someone play this style I think of Andy McKee.. When I first seen him play I WAS BLOWN AWAY!! Kind of like your response to seeing this guy...

I used to play all of this stuff with my face, but I just moved on. I don't wanna be put into a stylistic box, man.

Thanks for posting these videos. I heard Phunkdified back in 2009, loved it, and shortly thereafter forgot the guy's name. Nice to hear it again.

Cool stuff, I always think of Michael Hedges when I see someone play in this style.

I saw Michael Hedges in concert in 1987, what an amazing performer.
